SUMMARY
This lesson delves into Incremental Sheet Forming (ISF) processes, a family of flexible, die-less forming processes introduced in the previous lesson. Learn about the various ISF methods, including Single-Point Incremental Forming (SPIF), Two-Point Incremental Forming (TPIF), Double-Sided Incremental Forming (DSIF), as well as Multi-Stage Incremental Forming (MSIF) and Robotic Incremental Sheet Forming (RISF). Furthermore, explore their advantages, disadvantages, mechanisms and required machinery, tooling, thus gaining a comprehensive understanding of the ISF family and its applications in modern manufacturing.
